MORMON APOSTLE M. RUSSELL BALLARD DIES AMID QUESTIONS ABOUT TIM BALLARD, O.U.R. CONNECTION

In the weeks and months before his death, Ballard appeared in dozens of news headlines because of his relationship with Tim Ballard (no familial relation), the former CEO of Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.), whom multiple people have accused of sexual misconduct and misleading donors. The LDS Church has distanced itself from Tim Ballard and insinuated that Tim Ballard exploited his friendship with M. Russell Ballard to further his personal interests (as originally reported by VICE News), the still-developing story casts a shadow on M. Russell Ballardโs legacy and raises questions about his dealings as a religious leader and a businessman. The words of the Bard might come to the minds of some, โI come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.โ
In regards to family, Ballard is descended from a long line of prominent Mormon leaders. His grandfathers Melvin J. Ballard and Hyrum M. Smith were both apostles, his great-grandfather was LDS President Joseph F. Smith, the nephew of Mormon Church founder Joseph Smith. One of the possible stains on Ballardโs legacy is the allegation he used his position and authority as a leader of the church to promote his familyโs business interests. An exhibit in an ongoing lawsuit against O.U.R. and Tim Ballard states that Davis County District Attorney Troy Rawlings had reason to believe, โElder M. Russell Ballardโs son-in-law is involved in investing O.U.R.โs money and Elder Ballard and/or his family is benefiting from the investments.โ
The lawsuit also alleges โThe Davis County Investigation, according to O.U.R.โs own internal documents, revealed that Elder M. Russell Ballard and other authorities from the Mormon Church, provided Mormon tithing records to O.U.R. to help O.U.R. target wealthy donors and wealthy Mormons,โ and that Tim Ballard has met with M. Russell Ballard in the Church Administration Building to discuss O.U.R.โs work.
In his professional life before being called as an apostle, M. Russell Ballard was involved in the automotive, real estate and investment industries. His first car dealership failed when Ford shuttered the automotive brand Edsel. Ballard attributed the businessโs failure to ignoring inspiration he received while praying. Later, Ballard became president of Keystone Securities Corporation, and not long after that, the Securities and Exchange Commission started investigating Keystone for fraud, ultimately charging the company with providing false statements to the SEC and revoking its broker-dealer registration. Another venture of his, the Valley Music Hall was a concert venue in Bountiful, Utah. According to the faithโs Church News, โAfter fire damaged the building in the 1970s, the Church purchased the building and converted it for conferences and other Church and cultural functions.โ
